Veeno in Stratford-on-Avon

This is a wonderful semi independant Italian establishment. I visted with some work colleagues and both the service and the food were far beyond expectation. The food was excellent, even though I 'just' had a pizza it was so much more than expected. It was light and full of flavours - way beyond some others Pizza places I have frequented. The lady who welcomed us and served us was refreshingly pleasant and couldn't do enough to look after us and ensure our evening was the best it could be. If you're in Stratford, do yourself a favour and try out this fairly new place, you'll not be dissappointed

Attended the wine tasting evening on 16th October. We were greeted by Andrei who was the perfect host from start to finish. Very knowledgeable and could not do enough to make our evening enjoyable even tho he knew the venue was closing a few days later he still dealt with us in a professional and pleasant manner All the best Malcolm and Jo

Popped in last night after a meal elsewhere, we both had a cocktail, all the staff were very friendly and welcoming, great ambiance . Thank you 😊

The worst service I have ever experienced! Vile bartender. Refused to seat us and then when we complained about the poor service he grabbed a glass out of our hands. Absolutely horrendous behaviour. He was rude and aggressive. The service has always been poor in the Stratford one but lastnight was an absolutely shocker. Never ever going again!! it’s says a lot that it was empty and the bar next door was packed.

Fabulous server Ellie S. made us feel really welcome. We had the Italian Nachos and Garlic bread to start. Speck & Gorgonzola Pizza and a Lasagne mains, all rounded off with a bottle of chianti. The food was very fresh and very tasty. We didn’t realise that there is a wine tasting room and lots of seating and bar stools just for drinks and cocktails, so it‘s one we will definitely keep in mind for future visits. The manager Andre came over and was very chatty and enthusiastic about the restaurant and it the food.

Food fantastic, staff 10/10. Would highly recommend coming here. The Wine is next level the our richest and our wine of love is top tier

Fantastic wine tasting experience didn’t know what to expect but it was brilliant Casey was a fab host and very knowledgeable about the wines we was tasting the platter of food was lovely all in all would give 10/10 and would thoroughly reccomend

We loved everything about Veeno. The food was excellent, but we want to give a particular shout out to the staff, Adina, André and Allie, who were just the best.

This place is not much but the atmosphere created by the people who work there is amazing! Especially Andrei, nice chap, very professional and common in the same time. He recommended me a fantastic wine .. had to buy two more bottles to take home 😁

Absolutely love this place, great wine, good atmosphere and Andrei never lets down. Thank you Andrei, you're the best!

An great Taste of Sicily Wine tasting with an excellent sharing platter and tiramisu dessert. Ellie our host was engaging, enthusiastic and informative. At the end we decided to buy to a couple of bottles of the wines we particularly liked during the tasting. However, we were surprised to be charged 12.5% service charge as this is automatically charged on the whole bill. On raising this issue we were told this is how their billing works, which in our opinion this is a sharp practice, especially as our host had emphasised at the start of the experience the 33% discount that was available if we wanted to buy any wines to take away.

I used to love this place, but this was a truly awful experience in every way. After a very traumatic family day my wife and I simply wanted a bowl of pasta and a pizza to share and having been here before we drove 12 miles, (each way) to try to enjoy just that. On arrival we discovered there was a "buy one get one free" offer which was great as we planed to share a bowl of pasta and a pizza between us. Initial welcome was OK, we ordered food and waited, waited and waited. Eventually both dishes arrived and immediately it was realised that the pasta was stone cold and we rejected it, leaving us with just the pizza - this itself was pretty cold and all but impossible to slice with the cutlery supplied - blunt knives and over cooked ham on the pizza do not make a great combination. We just wanted to be in and out and therefore ploughed on. Eventually the replacement pasta (Carbonaro) arrived and visually it looked awful, swimming in pool of insipid liquid which we presumed to be egg yolk (of course the eggs should be beaten or whisked), and again the food was only at best mildly warm - due in part to the serving bowl being stone cold - for the second time. We elected to decline the pasta and leave. Upon paying the manager (I presume) called over that he was not charging us for the pasta - this despite our ordering on their "buy one get one free" offer so the pasta was not chargeable anyway. Sadly we will not be back

Not a great experience. When we arrived, we were placed at a table in the corner away from the rest of the floorplate despite the restuarant being empty. We ordered our drinks, food and ended up waiting 30-45min (despite an empty resaurant) for our starters. Our food consisted of mouldy grapes and the mains were microwaved with the food stone cold in the middle. Would not recommend at all.

after picking my daughter up from school to come home for the holidays we had lunch at Veeno, we often stop to break the journey up, we will always eat here now we have discovered Veeno. Andrei T was absolutely fantastic, we were slightly early but he showed us to a booth and served us some drinks, advised us on the menu and wow the food was fantastic. we will be looking to stay over and sample the wine list soon, it looks outstanding. well done and do not change anything. Tom and Evelyn Friday 28th lunch

Great atmosphere, service and food/drink at Veeno celebrating our friends 40th birthday. Andrei and the team went the extra mile in making sure we had a suitable area for a larger group, quick service and lovely drink recommendations. Highly recommended and we look forward to celebrating here again in the future.

Best place for Italian food, the restaurant was busy on Friday night so the chef Liza came by her self to serve the food and even explained everything on that. We ordered grande board that was beautifully presented and the lasagna and mushroom pasta were 10/10 . Me and my family really enjoyed there. We will definitely come back .

Had a fabulous Taste of Scicily wine tasting session at Veeno in Stratford on Friday. Wines were tasty, food quality and quantity were just right and our host, Ellie, was superb. She was fun, attentive, informative and certainly helped make a really lovely evening.

Super lunch food delicious cooked by a lovely young lady Lisa to a high standard. Super wines excellent service. Very reasonable for what you get.

My partner and I had a fabulous meal at Veeno last night. I had a mushroom and asparagus bruschetta which was fabulous and the carbonara was delectable and done the proper Italian way without any cream! We had a sublime Amarone with the meal that was very reasonably priced for the quality as was the food. The service was also spot on. We also loved the booth we were given as it was comfy and offered a degree of privacy. This place is now firmly on my list of favourites to eat out in Stratford. Top marks to the team.

Wine tasting with juan lovely host and knew exactly what she was taking about lovely lady and wonderful experience defo recommend xx

We were staying in Stratford for a week and found some excellent dog friendly restaurants and pubs . When we wanted a pizza we went to Veeno and the food and service was great . Diablo pizza was outstanding

Nice place, excellent service and food. Even on a busy night (Shakespeare’s festival) they managed to find us a table. Pizza and pasta ordered. We were served by Edina, that is a credit to the restaurant. Nice evening. Thanks.

Amazing Grande board, pasta carbonara and pizza at affordable prices and lovely ambience. Really friendly service from Andrei. Definitely would come back!

What an amazing evening we had a Veeno! We booked the Finest Italian Wine Review and we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. Elllie was great with her knowledge of Italian wines on show and their history. The platter complemented every wine so well. Andre the manager was also a great laugh. We will be back!

Fantastic knowledge, brilliant service thanks Ellie 💕 Ellie is an asset to Veeno, nothing was too much trouble! Ellie looked after us all the way through and was good fun too! Ellie is very personable and went above and beyond. Thank you Ellie 😀

Afternoon tea savoury and sweet with Glass of Prosecco it was delish and very filling really enjoyed it Juan was very nice and attentive excellent service all round . This was a present from our daughter for my birthday would recommend.

We had a wonderful wine tasting for two, which included a huge sharing platter and delicious tiramisu for dessert. The staff (Juan and Ellie) were fantastic at telling us about the 6 wines we tasted and which food would compliment each. Thank you to all the staff (the manager, whose name I don’t know, was also fab)

Excellent experience. Food and wine lovely. Matty was very knowledgeable and friendly. Would definitely recommend this experience to friends and family.

Excellent wine tasting experience. All the wines were different and fantastic. The cheese and meats accompaniments paired perfectly. Ellie our host was engaging and great guide. Would highly recommend.

Perfect for dinner with friends after a cinema trip. Joanne greeted us warmly and made us feel welcome. The food, cooked by Sicilian chef Antonino, was authentic and delicious.

I was treated to the Trip to Sicily wine tasting with friends. A lovely experience with 6 great wines, paired with some delicious food, and knowledgeable guided through by Matty.

The food and wine were excellent. I can't say as much for the service. Initially very good, but we hate it when you are given the bill and then you wait for them to come. We waited and waited in the end I left the cash and left.

Asked twice quite quickly if we were ready to order. When we were ready we ordered soup to start, to be told they didn't have any. And they didn't have any fries for burger meals. Would have been helpful to tell us that before. The menu says food will come together, so starter and mains came at the same time. No room on the table and the main was going cold by the time the starter was eaten. Pasta very Al dente.

A lovely date afternoon with my husband -a trip to Sicily with extra bruschetta and cocktails. Please Veenos pay Ellie and the chef whose name I have forgotten the £10 each extra for good service because it was excellent and I don’t have a google email account.

Lovely meal, table, atmosphere and surroundings, good value. Two lovely members of staff looked after us, Ellie and Abby, couldn't do enough for us.

We went for the wine tasting with platter. We were served by Morgana who was incredibly engaging, friendly and knowledgeable about the wine selection served, made for a very enjoyable evening, thank you Morgana

Great for a bottle of wine and sharing food with friends. Visited for a second time in as many weeks. Servizio favoloso! It makes such a difference helpful and knowledgeable service with a genuine smile from the lovely Morgana. The lady who brought the board also lovely. The recommendation of Grillo Bio was spot on. We will be back soon.

We had a fantastic time with drinks which had a deal on with an amazing nibbles board that came with it. David looked after us and was helpful and chatty and made our evening brilliant.

Enjoyed the wine and sharing board deal. Morgana and her colleagues were really positive staff, thank you for the excellent customer experience.

Excellent! Incredibly lovely French girl with a wonderful character. Champagne and board excellent deal. Merci Morgana

Absolutely amazing. From the minute we arrived David was very friendly, informative and so helpful. The food was amazing, so was the wine. Such a lovely experience. The service was exceptional, we will definitely be going back.

Fantastic Scillian wine tasting afternoon. Elena was Wonderful, very friendly, professional and knowledgeable.

We had the Sicilian wine tasting experience, and it was lovely. The hostess Marianna. Was very knowledgeable and infectious. She made the experience all the more special.

Didn't really have very high expectations when we decided on a couple of lunch specials. However, very pleasantly surprised. Food was generous and delicious. Served with a 125ml glass of wine or soft drink. Definitely worth a visit.

The best place to eat in Stratford! Great decor, fab music and excellent wine! Add to that amazing bruschetta, delicious tagliatelle and charming service. A great dining experience.

Great pizza and pasta dishes. Plenty of vegetarian choice. Friendly atmosphere. Great service from Elena. Visited a few times and will certainly be returning.
